Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
88 of 223 sampled reviews raised it
EDIT 1: I'm going to definitely recommend this game because the gameplay is the best ever in its genre, you've really got everything here, so much variety: jump, double jump, dodge, parry, melee, jump parry, jump melee and ranged attacks, 16 direction foreground shooting, background free shooting and "background parry", while usually in these type of game you can only jump and shoot.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
58 of 223 sampled reviews raised it
Score chasing, difficulty challenges, and mastery of advanced mechanics provide additional incentives for players to revisit stages and improve their performance.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
39 of 223 sampled reviews raised it
If you’re into this type of 2d pixel-art style of action game, it’s a must buy.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
33 of 223 sampled reviews raised it
The sound design plays a huge role in maintaining momentum because the game rarely gives players a chance to relax once the action begins.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
30 of 223 sampled reviews raised it
The characters are great, the music is awesome and the story is enjoyable for the type of experience.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
21 of 223 sampled reviews raised it
Beneath its retro-inspired presentation lies an intense and highly energetic combat system built around layered firefights, stylish movement, and relentless enemy encounters.
